  • the 8 bit words is clocked into the CODEC 210.
  • One of the one bit words is clocked into the converter 202.
  • the converter 202 asynchronizes the one bit data and routes them to the microcomputer 201. These signals are generally command signals and are routed to the microcomputer 201 for execution.
